Hidden beneath the hopes and dreams, gentle Feelings, inspiring me to trust, believe Fondness this alive isn’t accidental It feels amazing, just like Christmas Eve, Joyful and inspired, like a heart afire Breathing whispers of light over the soul Remembering the wonders who inspire Beautiful secrets abide to console Amazing with a tenderness so kind It feels like hope begot love’s light inside Gentling with an aching smile to remind Tears only flow from broken hearts who hide Love, soft and sure, though quiet, never lied Yes, tis’ a secret, but still the heart’s guide Yes, tis’ a secret, but still the heart’s guide Precious passions to free the thoughts of doubt Washing lives in hues that can’t be denied Singing, timeless prayers that won’t fade out Carving hope on hearts with admiration Writing a love story that stirs the muse Flowing words in verse, dazzling elation Restoring light to hearts lust did confuse Silencing fears with a splendid embrace Hearts glistening like stars, reflecting hope Long sought by the one who knows sweetest grace Joy sings the secret, love knows how to cope Blazing thru the spirit on wings, in rhythm Melting the past hurt, tis’ love’s algorithm Melting the past hurt, tis’ love’s algorithm Promising the wind, rustling refinement Twas’ music’s best, falling in love with him Elated by light, flow of alignment Walking through the heart’s open door, smiling This is the reason for blessings to gush, Fluent as love’s tongue with hearts, beguiling Rich as the dreams shaped by an artist’s brush This love gives hope wings, stilling each raw tear Where there was once a sob, now there’s promise Always, the soul knows that love will end fear Buried in the soul, not doubting Thomas The heart who hears love’s words, remembers bliss A test of love stirred by the sincere kiss A test of love stirred by the sincere kiss Opening the heart to a taste so sweet With feelings so great, our souls reminisce This is a dream that no doubt can defeat Veiled by the heartaches, so consuming Deepest despair, thinking what might have been Humble as tender hearts, unassuming Welcoming love so wise and warm within Surprising one who remembers this light Pouring over lives, kindling burning fires Fires of fervent hopes, provoking the night Like dancing breath upon the soul’s desires In the force of love’s caress lies wonder Imploring one to explore love’s thunder Imploring one to explore love’s thunder Wishes dance through autumn’s leaves, romancing No darkness can bring feelings asunder This is a beautiful so entrancing Only stars in heaven can understand Inspiring the head to hear from the heart Faithful so each touch can surely withstand Knowing grace, this love is a work of art Whatever is private becomes sincere Even the gladness remembers to share Part of the feelings, blessings to endear Hearts are treasures who will always take care To send chill bumps o’er the skin, quivering Risking fears so love isn’t left shivering Risking fears so love isn’t left shivering Secrets flow in rivers of consoling Life moves quickly, love keeps delivering The soul is charmed by love that keeps rolling On and on, gently in fluid motion, Laughter through the trees, guiding tender hope Sighing like the breeze, singing devotion Feelings arise like the sun who will cope Releasing the heart from its chains of fear Erasing the doubt, assuring sweet peace Kindness echoes in thoughts, a dewy tear Fading sorrows, love will slowly release Life brings its lessons in the gentlest rains Shaping blessings for those who have know pains Shaping blessings for those who have know pains Darkness fades beneath the sun’s rising grace Embracing feelings who bleed love’s remains Light lifts the heart, secrets doubt can’t replace Where I am, your music plays on my soul Blessing with joy that comes to life inside This is love that shares the heart’s self-control Lovely encounters that ever abide It is a secret, this love that will last Promising hope that assures the belief This is a feeling that’s alive, steadfast Love that comforts, bringing the best relief Aching for light, not coincidental Hidden beneath the hopes and dreams, gentle
